From the Publisher

Lisa Alexander was propelled to write PharmRepSelect after many years hiring pharmaceutical sales representatives and managers. Her role as a District Manager and Regional Recruiter was not to help people get the job, but rather to access their competency and evaluate their appropriateness and potential success.

As a consultant and author, she is now in a position to share crucial information that teaches you what to demonstrate to get the job offer you want. Since publication of PharmRepSelect, dozens and dozens of readers and job candidates have attributed their interview success to the information in this book.

It only makes sense to get your information from a person that was directly employed by major pharmaceutical companies making hiring decisions. Lisa trained Hiring Managers in the skill of assessing and selecting the best candidates! So if you are serious about getting a job in this field, you need to learn the necessary skills required by these companies. PharmRepSelect provides you with the most accurate information you need to prove you are the right candidate.

5.0 out of 5 stars PharmRepSelect : Excellent, Professional Interviewing Guide, December 18, 2002

This review is from: PharmRepSelect Your Complete Guide to Getting a Pharmaceutical Sales Job (Pharmrepselect, 1) (Paperback)
Excellent. I found "PharmRepSelect - Your Complete Guide to Getting a Job in Pharmaceutical Sales" to be an in-depth, target-to-goal approach in learning the necessary skills for successful job interviewing.

The book is written in a very personal, pragmatic style that allowed me as the reader to immediately identify with the author on the purpose and correct methods to achieving interviewing success. It offers a unique approach that allows the reader to interject their own experience and background along the way to help form a logical, concise plan for a job interview. It definitely takes the guess work out of what an interviewing manager is looking for.

After reading the book and forwarding it to my nephew, it helped him secure a position as a Pharmaceutical Sales Representative for a top Pharmaceutical Company. He is a recent graduate of Syracuse University and had been interviewing unsuccessfully with a number of Pharmaceutical Companies. I believe this book, "PharmRepSelect" is an invaluable guide to anyone graduating college and entering the working world. It delivers to the reader the necessary skills to interview "correctly", which can save a lot on time, money and anxiety.

We utilize "PharmRepSelect" as a management guide to follow for hiring the best candidates for our company. This book would be an asset to any company or individual interviewing in the Medical Industry.

5.0 out of 5 stars SHOULD BE REQUIRED, December 17, 2002
By 
Jill Spellman (Gainesville,Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PharmRepSelect Your Complete Guide to Getting a Pharmaceutical Sales Job (Pharmrepselect, 1) (Paperback)
PharmRepSelect is an easy and enjoyable read. This book contains humorous anecdotes that allow you to learn how to best prepare yourself for your own interview and not make the common mistakes that will keep you from getting a job. Having been in the educational field as a school administrator for many years, I would have benefited from using some of these interview techniques in my decision making process. Although the information is up-to-date,the message is timeless...you must enjoy your job in order to succeed!

1.0 out of 5 stars no help at all, December 3, 2003
By 
WG99 (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PharmRepSelect Your Complete Guide to Getting a Pharmaceutical Sales Job (Pharmrepselect, 1) (Paperback)
This book won't help you much at all. There's nothing in here you won't find in some of the other books that have much more to offer. I also bought the cd, it sounds like something a high school speech class put together.
When you buy the book and cd together, you're supposed to be able to e-mail questions to the author directly. I tried that and never heard back from her even once.
